Chris Paul. The Hornets have won 10 of 22 games. That's as many wins as 95% of this board thought they'd win all season.
WHO?! Mine would probably be Nash, or maybe even TMAC. He has shown how important he is to the team. The same way I see Nash is for the SUns.
What is "the other side of the ball"? Defense? Because Brand is in between KG and TD in BPG. Considering he's giving them at least 3 inches in height, that's not bad. His RPG is right on par with KG but a little less than Duncan. His efficiency rating is better than both KG/TD. What is the other side of the ball? I don't think Brand has a legit chance of winning the MVP unless the Clips make the playoffs (even then, no one thought Sonics would make playoffs last year and there wasn't any Ray Allen for MVP talk) but I think to say that Brand "doesn't compare" to KG or TD is not quite accurate.
I think EBrand's bpg is actually pretty high.. but if you watch his games he doesnt affect the outcome of the game as much as Cassell / Duncan / Garnett. Lebron is having a great offensive year but he doesnt play defense.. spg are not a good indicator since the players are usually gambling. It always seems the guy Lebron is guarding also has a strong game. Or alot of times Lebron is nowhere to be found. J
